Abstract
In this paper, a novel semi-fragile watermarking authentication scheme is proposed, which is based on two watermarks: the local watermark and the global watermark. The two watermarks complement each other. The local watermark is generated from the quantized ACs in 8×8 DCT block. The global watermark is produced by the lowest frequency subband in DWT-transformed image. In watermark embedding, the dither-modulation quantization rule is adopted to improve the scheme’s security. In watermark detection and authentication, a novel authentication principle is proposed, which obtains good authentication performances. Experimental results prove that this scheme can exactly detect and verify the tampered location against JPEG compression and some other attacks.
